In this paper, we theoretically investigate the time dilation and Doppler effect in curved space-time from the perspective of quantum field theory (QFT). A Coordinate Transformation which Maintains the Period of Clocks is introduced, and such coordinate transformation is named as CTMPC throughout this paper. By analogy with the Lorentz transformation in Minkowski space-time, CTMPC is a correct transformation in curved space-times in a sense that it shows the correct relation between the time measured by the two observers, moreover, Lorentz transformation is just a special case of CTMPC applied in Minkowski space-time. We demonstrate that the Coordinate Transformation which Maintains the Local Metric (CTMLM) is one CTMPC, while the mathematical forms of physics formulas in QFT will be maintained. As applications of CTMLM, the time dilation and Doppler effect with an arbitrary time-dependent relative velocity in curved space-time are analysed. For Minkowski space-time, the time dilation and Doppler effect agree with the clock hypothesis. For curved space-time, we show that even if the emitted wave has a narrow frequency range, the Doppler effect may, in general, broaden the frequency spectrum and, at the meantime, shift the frequencies values. These new findings will deepen our understanding on the nature of space-time and the Doppler effect in curved space-time, they may also provide theoretical guidance in future astronomical observations.

In this work, based on a recently introduced localization scheme for scalar fields, we argue that the geometry of the space-time, where the particle states of a scalar field are localized, is intimately related to the quantum entanglement of these states. More specifically, we show that on curved space-time can only be localized entangled states, while separable states are located on flat space-time. Our result goes in parallel with recent theoretical developments in the context of AdS/CFT correspondence which uncovered connections between gravity and quantum entanglement.
We consider the question of identifying the bulk space-time of the SYK model. Focusing on the signature of emergent space-time of the (Euclidean) model, we explain the need for non-local (Radon-type) transformations on external legs of $n$-point Greens functions. This results in a dual theory with Euclidean AdS signature with additional leg-factors. We speculate that these factors incorporate the coupling of additional bulk states similar to the discrete states of 2d string theory.
The formalism of Holographic Space-time (HST) is a translation of the principles of Lorentzian geometry into the language of quantum information. Intervals along time-like trajectories, and their associated causal diamonds, completely characterize a Lorentzian geometry. The Bekenstein-Hawking-Gibbons-t Hooft-Jacobson-Fischler-Susskind-Bousso Covariant Entropy Principle, equates the logarithm of the dimension of the Hilbert space associated with a diamond to one quarter of the area of the diamonds holographic screen, measured in Planck units. The most convincing argument for this principle is Jacobsons derivation of Einsteins equations as the hydrodynamic expression of this entropy law. In that context, the null energy condition (NEC) is seen to be the analog of the local law of entropy increase. The quantum version of Einsteins relativity principle is a set of constraints on the mutual quantum information shared by causal diamonds along different time-like trajectories. The implementation of this constraint for trajectories in relative motion is the greatest unsolved problem in HST. The other key feature of HST is its claim that, for non-negative cosmological constant or causal diamonds much smaller than the asymptotic radius of curvature for negative c.c., the degrees of freedom localized in the bulk of a diamond are constrained states of variables defined on the holographic screen. This principle gives a simple explanation of otherwise puzzling features of BH entropy formulae, and resolves the firewall problem for black holes in Minkowski space. It motivates a covariant version of the CKNcite{ckn} bound on the regime of validity of quantum field theory (QFT) and a detailed picture of the way in which QFT emerges as an approximation to the exact theory.
By applying loop quantum gravity techniques to 3D gravity with a positive cosmological constant $Lambda$, we show how the local gauge symmetry of the theory, encoded in the constraint algebra, acquires the quantum group structure of $so_q(4)$, with $ q = exp{(ihbar sqrt{Lambda}/2kappa)}$. By means of an Inonu-Wigner contraction of the quantum group bi-algebra, keeping $kappa$ finite, we obtain the kappa-Poincare algebra of the flat quantum space-time symmetries.
It is shown how the characteristic thermal effects that observers experience in space-times possessing an event horizon can manifest already in a simple quantum system with affine symmetry living on the real line. The derivation presented is essentially group theoretic in nature: a thermal state emerges naturally when comparing different representations of the group of affine transformations of the real line. The freedom in the choice of different notions of translation generators is the key to the Unruh effect on a line we describe.
